Standard weighting uses or the statistical
error given in the input spectrum. Gehrels weighting uses , a better
approximation when N is small (Gehrels, N. 1986, ApJ 303, 336). Churazov
weighting uses the suggestion of Churazov et al. (1996, ApJ 471, 673) to
estimate the weight for a given channel by averaging the counts in surrounding
channels. Model weighting uses the value of the model, not the data, to
estimate the weight.
